I was talking to a friend of mine a couple days ago who said she couldn't count the number of people who came up to her and tried to run the "smudge" of dirt off her forehead. She was kind of laughing about it because she had to stop them and say, "No, it's there because it's Ash Wednesday, you know Lent!"

I had such a great time yesterday, Tuesday, taking the radio show on the road to the Family Fare store on Lake Michigan and Collindale, NW for Fat Tuesday. It's tradition for us to broadcast there as hundreds of folks come to pick up the Paczki.

Woke up this morning at 4:30am and headed out to Family Fare on Lake Michigan Drive for a LIVE broadcast with Chuck La Tour. I was filling in for Andy Rent who is vacationing at the REAL Mardi Gras in the French Quarters
